الإجابة: B. Turret syndrome
Eye blinking and facial grimacing are motor tics and throat clearing is a phonic tic; having both, with onset in childhood, = Tourette syndrome. Myoclonus is brief shock-like jerks without vocalisation, and Huntington disease is an adult-onset chorea (it is listed as a condition to rule out).

A
ليش غلط
Myoclonus is a sudden, brief muscle jerk; it does not produce blinking, grimacing and throat clearing that the child can suppress.

ليش صح
Tourette syndrome needs both motor tics (blinking, facial grimace) and phonic tics (throat clearing), with onset before age 21.

Tremor is a rhythmic, sinusoidal oscillation of a body part, whereas tics are sudden, repetitive movements or sounds.

D
ليش غلط
Huntington disease is listed among the conditions that must be ruled out in a patient with tics; it is not the diagnosis for a child with both motor and phonic tics.
